Lunchbox Inspiration: My Super Quick Weekday Meat Sauce

You know those days when you barely have time to use the bathroom, let alone cook a wholesome meal for your family? And what about the challenge of pleasing everyone’s taste buds all in the same dinner? Well, this super quick weekday meat sauce never fails to be a crowd-pleaser!

Ingredients:

2 lbs of either ground beef, turkey or pork (my favorite is some combination of the three) Olive oil for sautéing 1 medium onion, finely chopped 4 cloves of garlic, sliced 1 tablespoon of dried parsley 1 tablespoon of Italian seasoning Salt & pepper to taste (I use these generously) Sprinkle of red pepper flakes 2 jars of your favorite marinara sauce (I love Raos which contains no preservatives and just a few whole ingredients) 1/4 cup grated parmesan or romano cheese (I use the one at Trader Joe’s that’s a combo)
